Qwilt has surpassed a significant milestone, deploying 2,196 edge nodes across 38 countries on six continents. Qwilt says this expansion solidifies its leadership in Edge Cloud, delivering unmatched proximity, speed, and scale for edge compute and delivery.

Today, Qwilt partners with major service, content and application providers worldwide, including Airtel, BT, Comcast, Telefonica, Verizon, and Vodafone, demonstrating its strategic alignment with the future of the service provider edge. Its highly distributed architecture now forms the world’s largest true Edge Cloud, embedded directly within service provider access networks.

“Through our Open Edge framework, we’ve unlocked access to the last mile of the network, igniting a global edge ecosystem capable of ultra-low latency compute and application delivery,” said Alon Maor, CEO, Qwilt. “Exceeding 2,000 edge nodes proves both the growing demand for hyper-local edge compute and the power of our platform to scale globally. Most importantly, this massive global infrastructure is now accessible through a single, programmatic API, making it easier than ever to build and deliver next-generation applications at the true edge.”

While traditional platforms often stop at metro data centres or IXPs, Qwilt goes deeper—embedding compute and caching directly within last-mile networks. This gives service providers and content publishers a radically more efficient, scalable, and performant alternative to legacy delivery and centralised cloud models.

Qwilt’s Open Edge architecture offers:

• Hyper-local distribution – at the neighborhood level, on average 10x closer to end users than legacy CDNs or cloud platforms
• Ultra-low latency compute and delivery – heightened proximity unlocks sub-5ms performance for real-time services and applications
• Reduced network congestion – shifting content and compute to the edge cuts backhaul costs and traffic
• Ease of global last-mile access – the Open Edge ecosystem revolutionizes service velocity at the local edge

“There are two key reasons why our Open Edge Cloud is growing eight times faster than traditional platforms,” Maor added. “First, our deep partnership model puts edge nodes and origin servers directly into service provider access networks—already enabling over 150 Tbps of last-mile capacity. Second, we’ve made this massive global edge accessible via a single, standards-based API. That’s a game-changer for service providers and developers building the next wave of real-time applications.”

As demand accelerates for real-time applications – from streaming and gaming, to enterprise software, large language models, and other compute-heavy services – Qwilt’s globally distributed edge ensures infrastructure is ready, local, and scalable.
